Guess people like me have it opened in the background most of the time. So in many ways it's not much use. Hope it doesn't use up the resources so the site crashes more often like last season.
Am I the only person who finds this irritating. All the time while I'm reading threads I keep seeing this list flickering on the left. It's like having advertising banners.

No you're not. It's not a particularly useful piece of information and, as you say, it's irritating.
I used to like it when we had top of the league and it didn't used to flicker, but your right, it is a bit of a distraction now. If it only refreshed when you clicked to change screens that would be fine. The fact that the numbers jump about so much, makes me wonder what it's actually telling us anything anyway. Surely people don't come and go that quickly, or is it logging every fleeting transaction from mobile lifers or something?
Maybe "flicker" is the wrong word. But it is constantly updating so there is movement in that panel. As for "jumping about", I was referring to the number of people online rather than anything on the screen. At the moment its making changes from the early twenties to the early forties, but there doesn't seem to be any steady movement up or down, the jumps are so big it seems almost random.
The whole point of it (for me at least) is if i want to see if a particular person is online before i slag them off.
That task is made all the harder with the constant jumping about. It's like trying to do a head count when everyones running around. So rather than aphabetical order, why not just in the order of logging on?
just a thought, but why are all these other lifers on at 01:51 in the morning. are you all insomniacs or too excited to sleep in anticipation of the trip to meadow lane. i'm sat in my broom cupboard office looking forward to the game.

Train at 10:15, can't go to sleep as my alarm won't go off (I just know it) and cause me to miss the trip..must not sleep...will die if I don't..dilemma

Doesn't flicker or jump about at all for me, must be the browser I guess?

Think that would be far less of a distraction.
Excellent + idea.
See what I did there.

Think I'm suffering from altitude sickness.
